In the UAE, Ministerial Resolution 380 of 2022 phases out single-use plastic products, with bans on items such as plastic cups, lids, cutlery, plates and polystyrene food containers from 1 January 2026, following earlier bans on single-use plastic bags in Abu Dhabi and Dubai. ## Paper cups for hot and cold drinks **Custom printed paper cups** for hot drinks and cold cups for iced coffee and juices, with matching lids or as **lid-free paper cups**. Artwork can include Arabic text and is approved on a proof before production. ## Bagasse and kraft food packaging **Bagasse containers**, clamshells, plates and bowls, **kraft bowls with lids** and takeaway boxes replace plastic and polystyrene in restaurants, delivery and hotel service. Ekoroll bagasse is **home compostable & 100% bagasse**, certified TÜV AUSTRIA OK compost HOME; a copy of the certificate is available on request. ## Disposable paper ashtrays For hotel terraces, shisha lounges and outdoor seating, the **disposable paper ashtray** is a hygienic, single-use alternative to glass and metal ashtrays. ## Shipping to the Gulf Orders ship from Turkish ports by sea freight in containers; trade terms are agreed per shipment. Lead time depends on the type of order: stock items, custom print, a mold or format change and private-label programs are each scheduled differently, and the lead time is confirmed in writing in your quote.
